Village Harmony is an umbrella organization founded in 1989 and based in central Vermont, dedicated to the study and performance of ethnic singing traditions from around the world. In a normal summer the organization sponsors 9-10 different study-performance ensembles involving both teen and adult singers, usually with five in the US and the others overseas. Each group develops its own unique sound during a week-long residence learning their concert repertoire with a unique international team of leaders. But all of the ensembles share common traits: a powerful, natural, unrestrained, vocal sound; a remarkable variety of vocal styles and timbres, as appropriate to the many varieties of ethnic and traditional music; and the visible, vibrant community among the singers and audience as they share in a joyous celebration of music.
